My Servant System

Chapter 699 698: Slow Transition

The funds for the bones and scales were given to us swiftly afterwards, the older Vampire smiling innocently at Jahi and handing her the large pouch filled with Platinums, which the Demoness accepted worriedly as she endured the various smirks aimed her way.

I had already scolded her a bit after Lady Lorelei left to retrieve the funds for her purchase, pulling on her pointed ear and reprimanding her short sighted greed that would cost her in long term debt most likely, since the Vampire was much older than us and likely much wiser then us, and if some of the studies from my old world in regards to psychology pertained to this one as well, then she was also likely very spiteful and sociopathic, and even if her daughter was married to that woman, I have no doubt that the woman we were dealing with could - and would - separate personal ties from business ties.

So I made sure to nag the Demoness a bit, though the Marquess stepped in and made me cool it by saying that Jahi needs to learn it first hand, and now she will.

She very much will...

Besides being paid our share of the profits, we discussed more about the alloys, with Anput taking the lead in that conversation and giving us ideas on what she was willing to make now and what she wasn't willing to make.

"I don't mind the idea of making a few accessories from the scales and either silver or copper alloy, but I wouldn't want to waste the materials, so until I see consecutive proof from you, Kat, that you can place enchantments worth being put on Fiend scales, I won't be making anything at all. Sorry not sorry, but my love for you doesn't equate to being a wastrel."

I chuckled and waved her off, saying "Obviously, Anput. I was more so wondering if you were making armor from it or if you were going to wait, or weapons either. Those are more immediate things that we can take full advantage of, after all. If so, then it'd be best to prepare for them now instead of being surprised by their appearance?"

Shrugging, the Jackalkin glanced at the various knives on the table before looking towards everyone else, saying "I could, but again, I think I'd rather wait a little bit to do so, y'know? We're at a good spot at the moment with gear, and I have materials I can use to bridge us over for a while, so I think I'd want to wait on it and improve myself first. Maybe get some far better metals to work with so that the alloys would be more effective than what they are now?"

"If that is your wish, Begum, I would suggest determining a few more things with the Fiend materials before plotting your course throughout the Empire once again. Find some areas that provide the materials that you desire and hope that you can find them in abundance. Or perhaps, if you're feeling rather risky, head off into the Labyrinthian to get a taste for the horrors inside. Under supervision, of course."

"I do have a list of areas with materials that I want to get my hands on, and as for the Labyrinthian, I think I'll listen to the advice of my parents on that one and stay away for now? Unless I absolutely need to, I don't particularly want to step foot in there just yet..."

Jahi, Leone and I nodded alongside Anput, while the Marquess crossed her arms and said "I agree; stay the hell away from the Labyrinthian for a bit. You are no where near ready for that. Strength wise, maybe, but I simply don't trust you lot to go in and come out without significant harm to yourselves."

The older Demoness just raised a brow as Jahi looked back at her, though we all unanimously glared at Jahi to not do another stupid thing that had much larger consequences than being a penny pincher and 'businesswoman'.

Backing down, Jahi just accepted what was happening before we began to go our separate ways, the fun over for today as we retired early and prepared for the days ahead.

We each had our own work that needed to be done, things that we needed to improve upon and begin making deep progress on so that we could grow ever stronger; some had it more complicated than others, of course, but we all had training to get to.

I needed to study my enchanting and mana control, Leone was going to be studying her magics, Anput doing more forging and testing on the Fiends parts, while Jahi would be working out and training with the Knights.

Might not be the most complex thing compared to us, but the physical strain was undoubtedly greater, so... none of us were complaining about the Demoness' plans.

Nor did we deny her the service that she requested of us tonight, letting our wife do as she pleased to us until dinner was ready, using that as a break and refueling with the wonderful meal that Mother made - as per usual with her cooking, as we had come to expect.

When we got back to it, we didn't stop until Jahi had sated her hunger, leaving us all drained and tired as we sprawled out on the bed, enjoying the warmth and comfort of one another as we dozed in the dark room.

Feeling great from it all, I idly played around with the pleasure that I had been injected with, seeing if I could understand it some more while we were in a resting period; Anput was recharging herself as she laid atop my body, while Leone and Jahi tiredly - yet still with some passion - made out as they embraced beside us, waiting for their bodies to rest enough so that they could begin again.

Just feeling the 'Pleasure' again as was good for me, while the attempt to harness those bundles of 'Pleasure' inside me and turn it into Lust Mana failed once more, but I just wanted to make sure I maintained my practice with it, even if I wasn't truly going to be cultivating the new mana just yet...
